Kidney Stones (Nephrolithiasis) Signs & Symptoms | & Why They Occur

Kidney stones (causing kidney stone disease, or nephrolithiasis) is a condition involving formation of stones (renal calculi) within the kidneys. These stones can cause a variety of signs and symptoms when they exit the kidneys and enter into the ureters and other parts of the urinary system. In this lesson, we discuss the signs and symptoms of kidney stones, including why each of these signs and symptoms happens.

Been dealing with a kidney stone off and on since last week. I initially ended up at the ER with so much pain. It really does come in waves. Tonight was terrible! While the pain I’ve had today has been excruciating, I found comfort in this video fully explaining the process. Thank you for the informative video. Good luck to all in the same boat.

Doctor prescribed Warstone to me...I ordered it frm Amazon...my 17mm stone was dissolved in 2 months treatment..people said only surgery is the solution but Warstone saved me..

[Dilip_DS]

I have TRIED more than 10 medications for my stone problem..it is a very old problem..I had more than 12 stones in both my kidneys..I used WARSTONE Treatment and it helped me to relieve atleast 7-8 stones from the kidneys, , still 2-3 stones are left..but still it is BETTER than most of the medicines.

I have had kidney stones 3x now, and here are some tips and tricks I learned along the way. A heating pad applied to the painful area does wonders. I now prepare a gallon jug of water and I add like 5 table spoons of apple cider vinegar, I drink a few glasses a day. At first I did not like it, but over time I am now craving it daily. I truly believe it threnses my thirst better than any other drink, even plain water. Anyways, I have never had a kidney stone after I started drinking this. It has been like 5 years. Look up apple cider vinegar benefits, you'll be amazed at all the benefits. Hope it helps somebody dealing with these nasties.

Im 38, my appendix burst in 2001, I was stabbed 5x in 2004, NOTHING COMPARES TO KIDNEY STONE PAIN!! I got my 1st one in October 2020 and called a ambulance at 4am thinking I was dying. The pain was so bad I could not tell where it was at, I got a fever, vomiting, sweating, screaming, and feeling like I was being kicked in the groin over & over. It did not matter how I positioned myself, no relief. I passed it, 3.7mm two days later and got my 2nd one today...would not wish on anyone!! Ouch!!!!

[nikkielevated]

I have been experiencing all these symptoms since I was a teenager. I remember the pain would come and literally break me down and I’d be on the floor rolling and balling up and my grandmother would be so confused. It always came in waves and lasts about 5 minutes very intensely and then starts to wear off and I’d be okay again. It makes me so nauseous. I finally decided right now to YouTube what it could be and though your disclaimer states this is not for a diagnosis, I am SURE 120% that this is what I have been experiencing all this time. Thank you!!!

I’m 30, and I went two days ago to the ED and the pain was definitely the worst I’ve ever experienced. No comfort wherever I turned. They finally saw me after 4 excruciating hours and the pain went away. At this point, I had no energy left, needed sleep and was very weak. I do not wish this upon anyone. The stone has not passed as of yet.

Kidney stones sound painful! It's so important to recognize the early signs and stay hydrated to prevent them. This topic is a real eye-opener.

[Johnny-yu]

I started taking chanca piedra for a month now, thank God! Its helping ...NO PAIN.

[SoulPrints]

The pain literally takes the breath away, u just cant breath :/

[ChrisFowlerNH]

I had an acute attack a few years ago. An 8mm stone. It's the worst pain I've ever experienced. I got out of my car having left work because I wasn't feeling well and immediately fell to the ground in the fetal position SCREAMING in pain. I'm experiencing a "duller" version of this pain as of late and definitely don't want to go through another accute attack! I wouldn't wish kidney stone pain on my worst enemy. I can't stress this enough to anyone currently suffering from one... DRINK A TON OF Water. You MUST stay hydrated to lessen the pain and increase the chances of passing it.

[michelleadamchak]

My BIL passed one, and it was the scariest thing I've ever seen, I was only 9 when it occured, and my BIL was so low key usually. He was quite literally screaming for God to make it stop, and I'm pretty sure God heard him!! Ambulance came cause we thought he was dying. The pain. He said the pain was excruciating.

[drastikbeatz]

This by far goes on my top 3 list of pain. Lord have mercy. stay hydrated with plenty of water.

I’m so scared of getting one my family don’t have a history of them but I’m shaking reading these comments about the pain

[BelleEFlopp-nkxe]

36 years old never had a kidney stone until 2 months ago. Dr sent me to ER for gallbladder. CT scan, bloodwork and ultrasound showed no gallstones though sludgy gallbladder…a cyst on my ovary, and a kidney stone. They sent me home with a focus on my gallbladder. Now 2 months later and I have it on my left side. Realization hit me that it’s kidney stones causing this pain, not my gallbladder or the cyst. Flank pain is nonstop, feels like a broken rib jabbing into my organs… the “waves” radiate pain throughout my entire abdomen, chest and collarbone area… full sweat and vomiting at that point. 😩 I had 2 UTIs for the 1st time recently also… which I’m guessing is what started the kidney problems.

[jasonantigua]

Had my third one last week! The pain is insane!!!

[thehumerus]

Day 7: I'm about to rip out my own kidney. So damn painful.

Edit: The stone finally made it's way out at about day 10 or so. Whoever is suffering from one, hang in there you'll make it!

[harrisonhanson]

“Sharp pain or dull pain” GREAT! So you described the only 2 types of pain.
